A Modern Take on a ’70s Rock Staple

Epiphone continues its tradition of re-creating iconic guitars inspired by historic designs with a model pulled right from rock’s golden age: the Flying V ’70s. Released in 1958, the futuristic shape initially failed to find an audience until the gain-obsessed rockers of the ’70s got their hands on it and made it their own. Epiphone’s take on this classic design honors the appeal of the ’70s iteration with a V-shaped mahogany body, a set-in Rounded C neck with an ebony fretboard, and the iconic arrowhead headstock, while also offering a fresh set of contemporary appointments for modern playability. Sonically, a set of T-Type Pro humbucking pickups delivers high-output tones with undeniable vintage flavor, emulating the original T-Top pickups popular at the time. The Flying V has long inspired layers, and Epiphone’s modern take brings the legend to a new generation of guitarists.
